Producing scheduling that causes concurrent programs to fail
A noise maker is a tool that seeds a concurrent program with conditional synchronization primitives (such as yield()) for the purpose of increasing the likelihood that a bug manif...

A structural approach to quasi-static schedulability analysis of communicating concurrent programs
We describe a system as a set of communicating concurrent programs. Quasi-static scheduling compiles the concurrent programs into a sequential one. It uses a Petri net as an inter...

Testing Concurrent Java Programs using Randomized Scheduling
The difficulty of finding errors caused by unexpected interleavings of threads in concurrent programs is well known. Model checkers can pinpoint such errors and verify correctness...

Isolating and understanding concurrency errors using reconstructed execution fragments
In this paper we propose Recon, a new general approach to concurrency debugging. Recon goes beyond just detecting bugs, it also presents to the programmer short fragments of buggy...

Concurrent Java Test Generation as a Search Problem
A Random test generator generates executable tests together with their expected results. In the form of a noise-maker, it seeds the program with conditional scheduling primitives ...
